Hello, RocNationDigital, and '''[[Help:Introduction|welcome to Wikipedia]]'''! Thank you for [[Special:Contributions/RocNationDigital|your contributions]]. |
|||
I noticed that one of the first articles you edited appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a [[Wikipedia:Plain and simple conflict of interest guide|conflict of interest]]. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a [[Wikipedia:Neutral point of view|neutral]] and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article. Your recent contributions may have already been undone for this very reason. |
|||
To reduce the chances of your contributions being undone, you might like to draft your revised article before submission, and then ask me or another editor to proofread it. See [[Help:Userspace draft|our help page on userspace drafts]] for more details. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask [[:Category:Wikipedia administrators willing to provide copies of deleted articles|anyone from this list]] and they will [[Wikipedia:Userfication|copy it to your user page]]. |
|||
One rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately [[Wikipedia:Username policy#Sharing accounts|be blocked from editing]]. Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have [[Wikipedia:Username policy#Promotional names|usernames which imply that the account belongs to a company or corporation]]. If you have a username like this, you should [[Wikipedia:Changing username|request a change of username]] or create a new account. (A name that identifies the user as an individual within a given organization may be OK.) |
|||
In addition, if you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for any contribution you make, you '''must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation''' to comply with our [[meta:Terms of use/FAQ on paid contributions without disclosure|terms of use]] and our [[Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure|policy on paid editing]]. |
|||

Revision as of 23:51, 29 April 2024
April 2024
Hello, RocNationDigital. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for article subjects for more information. We ask that you:
- avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization, clients, or competitors;
- propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{edit COI}} template)—don't forget to give details of reliable sources supporting your suggestions;
- disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest § How to disclose a COI);
- avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam § External link spamming);
- do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.
In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.
Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. thetechie@enwiki: ~/talk/ $ 23:51, 29 April 2024 (UTC)
Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, "RocNationDigital", may not comply with our username policy. Please note that you may not use a username that represents the name of a company, group, organization, product, service, or website. Examples of usernames that are not allowed include "XYZ Company", "MyWidgetsUSA.com", and "Foobar Museum of Art". However, you are permitted to use a username that contains such a name if it identifies you individually (not your role), such as "Sara Smith at XYZ Company", "Mark at WidgetsUSA", or "FoobarFan87", but not "SEO Manager at XYZ Company".
Please also note that Wikipedia does not allow accounts to be shared by multiple people and that you may not advocate for or promote any company, group, organization, product, service, or website, regardless of your username. Please also read our paid editing policy and our conflict of interest guideline. If you are a single individual and are willing to contribute to Wikipedia in an unbiased manner, please request a change of username by completing the form at Special:GlobalRenameRequest, choosing a username that complies with our username policy. Alternatively, you can just create a new account and use that for editing. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. Thank you. thetechie@enwiki: ~/talk/ $ 23:51, 29 April 2024 (UTC)
